Delkin Devices is now shipping Archival Gold Blu-ray (BD-R) recordable media, the first archival Blu-ray (BD-R) disc guaranteed to preserve data safely for over 200 years, according to the company.

Delkin Blu-ray (BD-R) discs feature a 200 year longevity rating, as well as a 4x write speed, enabling users to burn 25GB of data in only 23 minutes. Proprietary ScratchArmor scratch-proof coating protect the discs over fifty times better then typical coatings found on other optical discs.

"Delkin Blu-ray (BD-R) discs are manufactured in small batches to ensure an unparalleled degree of quality; our careful manufacturing processes and high standards are what enable our discs to last," explains Product Manager Anna Lopez.

Delkin Archival Gold Blu-ray is guaranteed to preserve data safely for over 200 years and can withstand the effects of UV light, heat and humidity without damage to the disc. This is largely due to the patented "phase-change" recording materials that enable high durability and unwavering recording properties over a long period of time.

Delkin archival BD-R discs are manufactured according to the official specifications outlined by the Blu-ray Disc Association. The discs are available in a variety of packages, including a single jewel case, a five disc binder, a ten disc spindle, or a 25 disc spindle, and can be purchased immediately at a variety of fine retailers internationally.
